and yer Dylan ...know what yu mean about big **** Canon's being a pain!!
My Bungie Cam is a bit hit and miss ..
Man, I know. I think this helmet cam would be perfect mounted to the bike...

Dao, cotton tumbleweeds, eh? That's funny.
As far as the camera.... that's not bad for $50 at all.
I'm gonna check into them..

I don't know if I'm ready for that level of sophistication.

Great vid Dao and fantastic quality for $50 . I got a HD camera but to be honest the files are huge (especially if you add music), so youtube wont upload them in high quality . So that little camera is perfect!

Thanks for the kind words. I tried to figure out a place to mount the camera on the bike. Not much luck unless I drill holes in the fairing and that's not gonna happen! Maybe I'll come up with another idea. I'm eyeing the reflectors on the fork tubes. Could possibly remove one and mount the camera there. I'll live with the helmet mount for now and just try to be more steady with it.

Glad you enjoyed the Jonny Lang track. One of my favorites! Will shoot more vid later today.

You will pik up a LOT more vibration mounted on the bike than on your helmet - your neck sort of acts as a shock absorber.Also you can turn your head. Most guys here in SA have helmet cams...............
Jules runs her camera behind her screen, so the wind noise is reduced.

DAMN - they won't post to Africa ! (they must know something, huh)
Anyone need a new DID camchain with a masterlink, swop for one of those cameras ? like Dao has.
I was going to fit it, decided to go with a new CCT only - so have one spare.

Shadow,
I looked into just buying one and shipping it to you, but USPS is even saying that they won't ship to SA at this time.... WTF??

Thanks Dylan, appreciate the effort , but let's see what other plan I can make...................I'll advertise the camchain in the parts section, as I know you guys battle to find CC's with a masterlink.
I haven't had a problem from all over the US in the past, using Paypal and dealers from Cal to New York. Maybe they've had bad experiences further north - hell, I wouldn't post stuff to places like Zimbabwe or Nigeria either.........................
BTW
I've found on it is a 50-60hz switch. No idea what it does.
That button is used for transfer into a machine running 110V or 220.
I'm not sure which is which, 50hz for 110V or 60 Hz. If it works on the setting you used,it must be right for the US.
